“Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.” – Denis Waitley – Speaker and Author

Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I’m not the same, the next question is ‘Who in the world am I?’ Ah, that’s the great puzzle!” – Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland –

Copy copy copy copy. At the end of the copy you will find your self.” -Yohji Yamamoto – /Austin Kleon, Steal Like an Artist/

I am always very grateful to the artists who share their techniques, or something new that they saw or learned. The curious experimenter in me always wants to try and see if it ‘fits me’. This time I tried mixed media collage. It started as learning experience from trying to make crystalline collage paper that I saw here (‘True Color’ blog). Then when I blogged with Carly on how she did it, turned out that I did exactly opposite. No problem. I’ll call it “my own twist” on the process. After all, I didn’t plan to make a collage. I combined it with pour media technique that I learned here (‘Puddle of Thoughts’ blog) and planned just to frame it as it is. Somehow, a week later, the idea about this particular collage was born and I forgot all about framing (I just need to do another one to fulfill that plan). I used purposely created creases of the tissue paper as the leaves’ veins and I like the effect. So, you’ll be the judge…

I also learned on one post today about Austin Kleon’s book ‘Steal Like an Artist’. I looked at it on Amazon and it has a very good ‘Look inside’ on it. So, for those of you who still try to create your own style, like I do…”start copying what you love…”.

Unfortunately it’s hard to take a decent photo of the painting which is done with metallic paint. Without flash it’s too dull, with the flash it’s too reflective. I hope you still can see the beautiful metallic swirls (I especially like the blue ones) and textures.
